Chris Cyborg is the new female champion of the Invicta FC featherweight division. The Brazilian took no notice of Marloes Coenen and knocked out the Dutchwoman in the fourth round of the main fight of the sixth attraction of the event, held on Saturday night (13), in Kansas City, in the United States.
Excited after the triumph, the Brazilian said: “The champion is back…”, she said in the interview, still in the cage with the belt in her possession.

With that, she resumed her career at Invicta in 2013 and has already achieved two triumphs in the organization.
